Station safety calls after crash

Transport for London (TfL) needs to focus on safety at Victoria Bus Station, a Conservative MP has said.

Nickie Aiken, MP for Cities of London and Westminster, said she was ‘concerned about passenger safety’ after a bus hit and killed a woman at the station on Monday 29th January.

Catherine Finnegan, who was 56, died at the scene after a double-decker struck her at 08 59 (8.59 a.m.).

Glynn Barton, TfL’s chief operating officer, said the bus station had had a ‘full safety assessment’ following the crash.
